Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay, COMC, or local card shops as part of a bulk lot. Given the low value of raw modern base cards, selling individually may not be cost-effective after shipping and fees.
Selling Tips
Best sold as part of a Cal Ripken Jr. player lot or a complete 1995 Topps set rather than individually, unless grading yields a high PSA 10.
